In an interview with IGN Opera for Devices’ executive vice president, Scott Hedrick discussed his company’s commitment to develop an exclusive web browser for Wii. When questioned about how the browser will actually work with Wii’s controller he says,

Scott Hedrick has also confirmed that the browser will not be sold as a separate item.
